The battle ended near noon, the Soviet anti-aircraft positions were almost completely destroyed, and only a very small number of anti-aircraft guns remained. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The battle is over, but the tragedy of the Soviet Red Army has just begun, Baranovich is located in the rear of the main Soviet defense line, the Chinese 1st Division in the city cannot hold out, the Soviet army wants to surrender can not find a place, in the face of the Luftwaffe that has re-occupied the sky, they can only hold their heads.

However, these are obviously not what Li Ling needs to consider, the troops try to find a way to establish contact with the rear as soon as possible, and it is not always a long-term way to pass through the Luftwaffe planes, in addition, although the 1st Huaxia Division and the Brandenburg Regiment fought more with less, they still won the victory in the state of being surrounded, and even forcibly knocked out the establishment of four infantry divisions and an anti-tank artillery brigade of the Soviet Army, but the price they paid was also extremely painful.

The 1st Huaxia Division paid almost half of the casualties, of which more than 1,000 were killed in battle and completely lost its combat effectiveness, which was definitely a rather heavy blow to the 1st Huaxia Division. At the same time, the troops from the Brandenburg regiment fought to the end with less than 30 people still alive, and all of them were injured to varying degrees, and Seeple even had half of his scalp cut off by shrapnel, and if it wasn't for his luck, maybe his head would have been left without knowing where to go.

"A plane has already landed on a runway that my men have made improvise, and I will go to the army group headquarters now."

Holding Hipple's hand, Li Ling didn't say much, and even he didn't know what kind of words to say, if it weren't for the Brandenburg regiment taking such a risk, I'm afraid this battle would be far from being so simple, maybe the entire Huaxia First Division would no longer exist.

Hearing that Li Ling was going to the headquarters of the army group, the soldiers of the living Brandenburg Regiment who were in the same ward all turned their eyes to Li Ling, they were waiting, they were eager.

"The war has casualties, honor and everything is secondary, general, I only hope that this battle will not lead to the final abolition of the Brandenburg regiment, so that my soldiers have no home!"

Although Sippel did not have too much contact with Li Ling, but through his contact with other people in the Huaxia First Division, he made a systematic analysis of Li Ling, he believed every word Li Ling said, and at the same time, he also believed that what Li Ling said would not let the Brandenburg regiment die in vain, and he even believed that Li Ling had the ability to get an iron cross for every living soldier, but now he was worried about the establishment of the Brandenburg regiment!

Eighty percent of the Brandenburg regiment had come to Baranović one after another, but now there were only about 30 men left, and the regiment had been completely abandoned. His own troops were already unpopular, and if they did this again, maybe those old-fashioned military high-ranking people would take this opportunity to dismantle the Brandenburg regiment.

"Soldiers, what you did, I see in my eyes, and I also see your role in the war!"

Letting go of Hipple's hand, Li Ling straightened up and looked at every expectant look in the ward, raising his voice as high as he could.

"I will definitely do what I promised you, and I will do my best to help you solve your worries! What I want to say to you here, including but not limited to these so-called guarantees, I want to say thank you here! On behalf of the First Division of China, I would like to thank you and your dead comrades-in-arms, it is your arrival that has reborn the First Division of China in a desperate situation! Thank you! ”

A thank you was loud, and a bow was full of sincerity.

This is Li Ling's heartfelt thanks!

Li Ling's move was obviously beyond everyone's expectations, and he was a little at a loss in an instant.

The soldiers never thought that they would be thanked by a German army armored general, and some of the German soldiers, who had always regarded honor above life, had even shed tears, and Sipur sat next to Li Ling, and it took half a minute to react, and hurriedly got up to help Li Ling up.

He wanted to say something, but he was speechless after helping Li Ling up, and at this time he didn't know what he should say to be right.

In fact, how could it be that the soldiers were full of tears? Li Ling's tears were already rolling in his eyes.

Originally, the Brandenburg regiment was not tasked with this, they stayed at their own request, and made such a great sacrifice. These people are not even of the same nationality and the same color as the vast majority of people in their own troops!

"Will... Checkmate...... This is our duty as soldiers! ”

The silence was broken abruptly by a soldier, his words a little stumbling but full of sincerity.

However, it was such a simple sentence that made Li Ling's heart feel sour, and his tears finally couldn't hold back anymore and flowed out of his eyes.

"You... You guys... Take care of your wounds! ”

Turning around, Li Ling tried his best to keep himself calm, and then hurriedly left the ward and ran straight away.

......

"Shoot, shoot! My troops don't want this kind of waste! They were holding the whole Soviet for a funeral! They are not qualified to live in this world, they do not deserve to be called comrades! ”

There was a bang, and it was the sound of bottles and glasses being swept to the ground and shattered.

Stalin could not bear such a defeat, and under such heavy encirclement, the Soviet Red Army was not completely annihilated by the enemy, but was almost completely annihilated by the Germans, which is an unacceptable fact in any case, and this also reduced almost all the strength of the Soviet border military district, and the entire Belarusian region was able to mobilize only a handful of troops!

This will be an unimaginable blow to the morale of the troops!

Even, their own people will begin to question the entire Soviet leadership, and they will not be able to give an account to the people at all!

"Comrade Stalin, we must reorganize, and if we continue like this, I am afraid there will still be failures! We need to change to get the war back in our hands. ”

Marshal Timoshenko stood in the room, albeit a little unnatural, but he could only bite the bullet and make such a suggestion.

"Comrade Stalin, the reorganization of the military is imperative, but you should also stand up and give the Soviet people some confidence, if you do not appear in the public eye, I am afraid that it will cause unrest in the whole society, and people will question whether you are still in Moscow, whether you are still commanding the Red Army to fight!"

Molotov didn't know much about military matters, but politically, he knew that the Soviet Union had to make a move.
